As I sit here, sending out email after email (I would love to know how many email correspondence I do in a day) an sound blurb caught my attention on the TV. My dad was watching “Squawk on the street” on CNBC and a quick blurb came up about how “Weight Watchers” is taking a huge hit this year in terms of loss revenue. Very interesting. More interested is that whenever TV talks about weight loss they almost always show clips of peoples butts and its always from behind as they walk away.
What’s up with that? Is the producer sitting around with the feature about weight loss sitting on his desk thinking to him self, “OK, I need something to really catch people’s attention for this segment. Close ups of people’s asses. Big fat butts. That’s what I need.” Then he sends out a camera man and tells him to only video tape people’s butts and only if they are really fat. So then there is this camera man just walking around filming people’s butts.
Or.
Maybe they just have clips of random butts that they film just for this neccesity.
And, how do you feel if it’s your fat ass that pops up on the Tube? Would you recognize it and claim notoriety? Or, would you pretend you didn’t recognize it?
Don’t lie.
